Having trouble reading saved files

$

Scenario:

Latest version of Sigil freshly installed. No prior installations. Installation is successful.

Plugin for EPUB 3 installed successfully.

Open an html book file in Sigil. Opens successfully.

Save file to EPUB 2 or 3.

Attempt to open newly generated EPUB file with Sigil. Get error message "Cannot load EPUB: name of file". Click on show details. Get message:

Unable to read OPF file.
Line: 5 Column 11 - Expected '>' or '/', but got ':'.

However, there is no contents.opf file in that folder (or anywhere else on the computer). Press close on the dialogue box. The dialogue vanishes, Sigil starts but comes up with an empty file, not the saved file.

What I am doing wrong? I want to open the html file, edit it, then save it to epub that I can open again.
